Presque Vu - Move

These tires, as mundane, utilitarian objects possess a level of kinetic energy, just waiting to move. The juxtaposition of these physical objects with a partially hidden, brightly colored parallel universe heightens that energy for me.

Presque Vu (French, almost seen) is a series of three works made from hundreds of images found in old books and magazines. These images, arranged into dense, sculptural forms, allude to the idea of parallel dimensions or hidden worlds where perception, space and time are upended. They give me a feeling much like trying to remember a dream from fragments of memory after waking. A feeling of desperation or longing as my conscious mind erases the memory to make room for the day's work.
